“Joy Cometh in the Morning”

‎With the twenty-ninth psalm we reach again an outburst of highest joy. “Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

‎“Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

‎“The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters.

‎“The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.”

‎This mood continues through the next following psalms. They are full of a great and overflowing joy, which soon surges up again into the divine thought of a resurrection. “O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

‎“Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

‎“For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”
